Festivals - Folk/Alternate

PORT FAIRY FESTIVAL Irish fiddlers Tim Whelan and Bartley O'Donnelll from Adelaide represented Epoch Violins in concert at this popular festival. They were a big hit, according to our man on the ground, Chris Sugden, who reckons he had the best display at the festival. Interest in the Epoch is reaching a groundswell. (See pics further down)
THE FIDDLERS' FESTIVAL In the bushland about an hour out of Melbourne, in the Yarra Valley, about 400 fiddlers gathered for their annual rage in February 99.

Our intrepid Irish fiddlers Tim Whelan and Bartley O'Donnell were there with their metallic ruby and natural electric Epochs. So too was Chris Sugden, with a display of multi-coloured Epochs in the boot of his hire car. The response was tremendous.


Most of the good music at the Fiddlers Festival
came out of the kitchen.
